fish. Simply add at least a half a cup of water into the bottom of your
removable cooking pot and insert the Fagor Stainless Steel Steamer
Basket and Trivet. Make sure that the steamer basket is positioned above
the water. The Fagor Stainless Steel Steamer Basket and Trivet can be
purchased separately on the Fagor website at www.fagoramerica.com.
3. Brown: This function is used to seal in flavor and juice by giving the food
a golden brown exterior.
4. Sauté: This function is used when cooking small pieces of food by
preparing them with very little oil at a high heat before using the pressure
cooking or slow cooking function.
5. Simmer: This function is used to make soup, stew, sauce or other entrees

very tender.
6. Pressure Cooking: HIGH-Use this function to cook at high pressure,
10-13 PSI (pounds per square inch). This pressure setting is more suitable
to cook tougher meats and vegetables or other foods that are not so

pressure setting is more suitable to cook delicate foods such as tender
vegetables and certain types of fish.
7. Slow Cooking: This program cooks food slowly for up to 10 hours at
temperatures of 190°F (LOW) or 212°F (HIGH). Slow cooking helps food
retain maximum flavor and tenderness.

and Greek yogurt.

of 10 minutes to cook different types of white rice.

omelettes, deviled eggs and many more.
11. Beans: This function uses high pressure and gives you a preset time of 30
minutes to cook different types of beans.
12. Meat: This function uses high pressure and gives you a preset time of 40
minutes to prepare all types of meat recipes.
13. Chicken: This function uses high pressure and gives you a preset time of
10 minutes to help you prepare perfect chicken recipes.
14. Vegetable: This function uses low pressure and gives you a preset time of
3 minutes to cook your favorite types of vegetables.
15. Start/Stop: To be used after a cooking selection has been made to begin
the cooking process or if you would like to cancel the cooking process.
16. Time Delay: Allows you to delay cooking time up to 6 hours. Simply push
the time delay button, which will increase by 30 minute increments until
